This is a sources sought notice only and does not constitute a formal solicitation or request for quotes. Interested small businesses, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, Certified HUBZone businesses, and Certified 8(a) Small Businesses are encouraged to submit capabilities packages demonstrating their ability to provide the requested materials. The capabilities package should include company profile information (employee count, office locations, UEI, CAGE Code, and small business designation), relevant experience, and technical qualifications. The anticipated solicitation issue date is February 17, 2026, with an expected contract award on or about April 1, 2026.
No set-aside designation has been applied to this procurement at this time; however, the Government will evaluate whether a small business set-aside is in its best interest prior to formal solicitation issuance. The opportunity carries NAICS Code 331420 (Copper Rolling, Drawing, Extruding, and Alloying) and PSC Code 4710 (Pipe, Tube and Rigid Tubing). Delivery of the material is required to MSC Warehouse 1968 at 1968 Gilbert Street, Dockway 10, Norfolk, Virginia 23511. This sources sought notice was posted on February 3, 2026, and interested parties should submit their capabilities packages prior to the February 10, 2026 deadline. No specific contract value or budget range has been disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, as this is a market research tool to determine the availability and adequacy of potential sources rather than a formal request for proposal or quotation.
